Cuir Cuba Intense by Nicolai Eau De Parfum Spray (Unisex) 3.4 oz (Women)

Intense original scent. Sweeter, honey start is darker greenish yellow, almost like a strongly brewed green tea flavored with peaches and lychees with a subtle hint of matcha.
Leather undertone is also more vegetal...like immortelle rather than pure leather. Earthier spices, you can recognize cumin (but don't worry, it doesn't go to body odour realm) coriander, Ylang-Ylang (here more in a banana way), green tobacco leaf and hay.
Civet not recognizable for me.

For summer heats without high humidity it can be too much.

A more feminine version of the harder men's leathery smoky scents.

I haven't been this genuinely 'WOWed' by a fragrance in a long time. It has an incredible level of masculinity and versatility. After wearing it several times, I've noticed an aromatic quality coming from the Anise. I don't usually enjoy tobacco-based fragrances, but this one has genuinely made me happy, even though it's not exactly 'WOW' in terms of longevity and sillage. My rating for this fragrance is 9 out of 10.

Smells like anise and hay. Dry. Not the easiest wear. Has a fuzzy feel. Cuir is a misnomer here. No leather for me. I get mostly the very light base notes and the top herbal / licorice notes spiked
by some citrus in the open. I think the fuzziness (or part of it comes from the lavender). Love the perfumer. Not my favorite from the brand. Definitely interesting. (Disclaimer. I don't often enjoy anise or licorice in perfume. It's very much here but as present as it is …I can say it's softly portrayed). This is definitely a special scent for someone..just not me. (Pretty unisex…but imo a tad more masculine).
+*ETA: wearing it in the heat in the summer it's GORGEOUS! Slightly sweet hay with the soft anise. The mint brings a wonderful coolness (she does mint soooo well ala L'eau Chic). Ugh it's so weird and wonderful how scents can change up on us. And it's so balanced. This house is truly special and always such artistry shown throughout her collection. I personally dislike mint, geranium and anise and am addicted to this currently!) I ACTUALLY AM OBSESSED WITH THE HAY+MINT+ANISE combo. And that is something I NEVER thought I would say!!)
